Ethyl Alcohol Manufacturing

NAICS 325193 (Ethyl Alcohol Manufacturing) encompasses the production and supply of industrial and specialized alcohol products for various federal government applications. The category specifically involves manufacturing ethyl alcohol and related chemical compounds used in diverse institutional and operational contexts. These products range from high-proof technical-grade alcohols to specialized formulations for specific government agency requirements.

Recent federal contract awards in this NAICS category demonstrate consistent procurement activity primarily by the United States Mint, Department of the Treasury, Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of State. Contract values typically range from approximately $1,800 to $14,000, with firm fixed-price purchase orders as the predominant contract type. Recurring vendors include Greenfield Global USA Inc., Industrial Chemicals Corporation, Warner Graham Company, and Fisher Scientific Company, who supply various alcohol formulations including 200-proof ethanol, USP/ACS grade alcohol, and industrial cleaning solutions. Performance locations are distributed across multiple states, with notable mentions of Colorado, New York, and Virginia. Notably, none of these awards utilized small business set-aside designations.

While the provided dataset focuses exclusively on contract awards and does not include federal contract opportunities, the consistent pattern of purchases suggests ongoing government demand for specialized alcohol products. The awards indicate these alcohols are used for purposes including coin production equipment maintenance, laboratory operations, cleaning and industrial processes, and diplomatic mission support. The procurement patterns suggest a steady, mission-critical need for precise, high-quality alcohol products across multiple federal agencies.
